Ray J Finally Breaks His Silence

Whitney Houston’s funeral was clearly emotional for Ray J, and now the singer’s on-and-off boyfriend has finally broken his silence.

The singer/rapper/producer released the following statement Friday morning:

“Over the past few days I’ve tried to process the emptiness that I am experiencing. What my heart feels cannot be expressed in words. The world lost an icon but I lost my close friend. Nippy I miss you so much! You were so happy and full of love. Your smile will live in my heart forever.”
